Secretary Whitney is determined that bis Off

nineteen knots. or about twenty-five miles an

been striving 10 Guido each the others in build
ing huge, unwieldy iron-clads to resist the i'm

In size as did the ships, and no results OF supe-
riority, one over the other. have been attained.
And now the American air-gun that throws dyn.
amite shells has been invented, and its success
full test the other day shows that no. ship can
be 80 armored as to resist its power. The here
lofore irresistible iron-clad must surrender the
dominion OF the sea to the swift cruiser and the

road have been built, c,sting with improvements
to old roads over $500 0O0, 00O an increase of

A 0r and New South.

II is pretty clear that the South has no time TO
wrangle over battle flags and none to waste in
mourning over lost cause" She has "a new
found cause" worth dozen of that she dropped
on the field Of Appomatlox-the cause of indus.
try, which is giving her health. plenty and hap.
piness.
1t used to be said in the old days before the
war that the South looked down on the North.
However that may be, if she gees on in mining
and manufacturing enterprise for twenty wears
more as she has been going on during the last
half decade the North will have TO strike a new
gait or the South will be looking back at her in
the race.
Her progress during the last eight months
makes the seven league boots of Jack the Giant
Killer quite unnecessary. The capital she has
invested during that time is considerably over
two hundred millions Of dollars In seven years
she has established fifteen thousand new indus
tries, and her iron mining increase has jumped
from three hundred and ninety-seven thousand
tons to nearly nine hundred thousand tons. with
machine shops, -four mills, cotton mills, lumber
mills. and in fact everything else in proportion.
The South is not putting on any airs. but she
is making barrels of money. Ali right. She
has magnificent section of the country and ia
working II for all II is worth.

There is now no question Of doubt in the
minds Of the people - to the building Of the
Tallahassee and Gulf Railroad. Work has com
menced In earnest, and while 1t II not prog
ing - rapidly - We could wish for, still We are
reliably informed that largeiforce of hands will
be put on the road about the first of Octobe r,
when the work will be pushed rapidly forward.
From what We can learn the route has not yet
been permanently located, and this alone see ms
to agitate the minds Of our citizens to q consid.
cradle degree. A railroad through this county
has been q lsng felt want, and would prove
great blessing to our people and . source Of
revenue to its owners, provided. Of course. 1t is
built through the most prosperous section of the
county. This we trust will be done. From all
accounts the projectors have only two routes in
view, and We feel confident that after careful
survey Of the country they will nnd no difficulty
in making the proper selection
Now We do not pretend to know anything
about building railroads, but we do claim TO know
something about Wakulla county and when we
assert that the projectors will make big mis-
take, should they build the road through the
western portion Of the county, we know whereof
We speak We want the railroad and want it
bad. but we want it through the richest and most
beautiful section of the county.
